Feeling better.

Bryan picked up his last paycheck from his work, and it wasn't *too* bad.  I've sold a sling on eBay and some hairclips on an online board I visit, so that brought in a little change.  I'm actually not too stressed about the money or the bills.  Yet.  Bryan has an interview for a job here in town early next week, so I'll reserve my breakdown until then.

Ya wanna know something weird, though?  After all the stuff that has happened recently with the Mister and me... the online crap, the blog crap, the job crap.... we're doing really well together.  We're communicating, he's being receptive, we're getting along better.... and he just left the whole blog issue alone completely (which is unusual for him).  He's told me how proud he is of me, he compliments me.... it's kinda FREAKIN' ME OUT, but in a good way.

So, if you'll excuse me, I need to go pick a fight real quick and get things back to normal.

hey sweetie, I had to laugh right out loud because I think I've said those words before! It's the hard times that bring you closer. I know it sounds like a load of crap. But in my own experience, the hard times just strengthen us.

Dude, even though it's so cliche the rough times really do bring you closer. I'm glad things have sort of settled down a little bit for you guys. Hope the job comes through too!

That is great, I have found that not fighting is so nice. :0P

lol!! That's the best part about big huge knock-down drag out fights is the closness it brings in the end.

Oh I must have missed your post a couple down. I'm so sorry you're going through all that at once, man that sucks. And let me tell you I have soooo been there and its scary shit to deal with. Especially with kids involved and even moreso when you can't work because you're pregnant but moreso because its absolutely impossible to find quality affordable childcare. I just want to remind you that it will pass, it will work out, it always does. It sounds from this post that you're already starting to feel better. Which is good.

I'm glad you are feeling a bit better. I meant to comment on your other post but you posted this one before I had a chance to compose my thoughts. I agree with the trying to get out of California, if you can. At least a different region. Maybe a bit further North where the cost of living isn't *quite* so expensive. Of course, I realize that you probably can't even afford to move so it's a catch-22 situation. Why does Bryan keep losing his jobs? Hope you don't mind me asking that. I'm just wondering if it's something he is or isn't doing or if they're temporary positions.

I hope things work out soon for you. Have you talked to your dad and told him how selling the house would put you and your family in dire straits?
